I gladly present before you the February 2020 edition of the School Serv newsletter.

For us, the year bygone was the year of path-breaking developments in areas of school set up, improvement and K-12 education technology. In 2019, School Serv celebrated a decade of its founding, new school projects were planned, new products were launched and groundwork for many remarkable school projects was laid. The year 2020 will see the launch of 4 new international school projects, recruitment for the institutions is afoot and admissions has already begun. The notifications can be referred to in this edition of the newsletter.

We have included the articles which elaborate on the topics such as the steps taken by the national and international agencies in the arena of education, which are not in the public discourse for some time now. Other pieces included highlight the assessed needs of the Indian education system, in view of the changing global educational scenario.

With a hope that the news articles will be helpful for reference to school promoters, I urge you all to keep sending your comments and suggestions to us.
